(CBS/AP) The top Taliban commander in Pakistan promised an assault on Washington "soon" - one he says will "amaze" the world.
"Soon we will launch an attack in Washington that will amaze everyone in the world," Baitullah Mehsud told The Associated Press by phone.
Mehsud also claimed responsibility for Monday's attack on a police academy outside the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore, saying it was in retaliation for U.S. missile strikes against militants along the Afghan border.

There's a million (OK, a dozen or so) ways they could really ***** us over if they plan it correctly. And they generally like to test a new President; although my gut feeling is they would be less public about it if it were actually going to happen.
And before Patters asks, by comparing an attack, if it happens, to 9/11, yes, this would be "Obama's" more than 9/11 was "Bush's" as we are more aware of the reality of terrorism over here now.

I agree the first dude was asleep at the wheel, at this juncture we should be prepared for all contingencies.. there are no excuses

Not intending to turn this into a Bush thread but before 9/11, a major terrorist attack on our land wasn't taken seriously by anyone - Bush, Clinton, whoever.

I mostly agree with this, though 9/11 was a product of U.S. foreign policy that has been fairly consistent throughout Democratic and Republican regimes. I strongly believe his policy towards Pakistan and Afghanistan are a mistake and will make the world every bit as dangerous as Bush's aggression has.

It's all or nothing over there IMO. We either eliminate the entire area (yes, the other "N" word) or leave completely and only attack them if they start something. It looks like Obama = Bush over there.

Well the latter option would create a world war, so I'm gonna say leaving is a vastly better option. Afghanistan is a scary, backwards place but changes in places like that can only come from within. Every time we've tried to change the internal political climate in a country it's backfired and undermined reform movements for decades.
